Course Description
sql Awards Best Free Course
Transact-SQL is an essential skill for data professionals and developers working with SQL databases. With this combination of expert instruction, demonstrations, and practical labs, step from your first SELECT statement through to implementing transactional programmatic logic.Work through multiple modules, each of which explore a key area of the Transact-SQL language, with a focus on querying and modifying data in Microsoft SQL Server or Azure SQL Database. The labs in this course use a sample database that can be deployed easily in Azure SQL Database, so you get hands-on experience with Transact-SQL without installing or configuring a database server.
Pros
Cons
-
- Course is part of two certified programs: Data Analysis: Essential Skills and Data Science Core.
- Course does a great job of encouraging experimentation, expanding the depth of understanding of the topics covered.
- Course support is robust and outperforms many of its peers.
-
- Course is for beginners with SQL, but not beginners with programming in general. It is geared towards an intermediate audience, and inexperienced coders may struggle.
- Course does not involve writing queries from scratch, which leaves certified graduates feeling unprepared for real-world applications.
- Course success rates are much higher for students with at least a peripheral background in SQL.
